Not great general advice. Totally agree on no job security... but there’s other ways to succeed then jump ship every 2 years. That’s a great way to have 2 years

Sounds like you haven’t found an employer who invests in your continued skills and development. A good employer/manager will give at least 10% and often 20% for skill dev.
With the resume of leaving every 2 years, many recruiters and hiring managers for companies that do invest in their employees would avoid you. So you’ll never find good employers either.
- marcus_holmes 6y agoIt's not jumping ship. Getting a new role in the same company, or moving to a different team in the same company, are both valid "not the same job". YMMV, but I've found this to be true. Mind you, it's been a decade since I've had to apply it. Freelancing doesn't count, and I'm making an exemption for C-level roles in startups, because they're never the same month to month anyway ;)
